JAKARTA - A 53-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, dangerous driving, and driving in an unhealthy condition due to drugs after his car hit a crowd of Liverpool fans during a Premier League champions parade.
Eleven victims are still being treated in hospital in stable condition on Tuesday, May 27.
Reported by Reuters on Tuesday, May 27, British police believe the incident in the busy downtown Liverpool on Monday was an incident unrelated to terrorism.
They said the gray Ford Galaxy driver involved in the incident was believed to have followed the ambulance to a closed road when a road blockade was opened to allow paramedics to deal with suspected heart attacks.
The video, which was uploaded online, shows the vehicle driving on a road filled with Liverpoool fans, causing some people to float into the air and drag four people under the wheel.
When the car stopped, angry people gathered on top of it and began breaking windows while police officers struggled to prevent them from getting closer to the driver.
Police said 50 people, including children, received medical treatment due to injuries, with 11 people still being hospitalized.
